[email] needs unit tests
[email] needs a webpage
[email] needs evidence of more than one commons committer willing to apply
patches/support.
[email] needs to change its package name or component name (the package is
mail not email)
I agree that its time to get this one promoted.

+1.

This will require a promotion of util, wont it? If email is to go to
Commons Proper, and it depends on util and an unreleased lang, don't we
need to get all three in a ready state?
